was quite gentleman. There was Billy, a

ever opened his eyes on a sinful world But
with the lapse of time Billy had grown bold
and bad After that Billy wasn't pet any

But there were plenty left to keep the circus

After the new schoolmaster came he helped
them out He tanght Shirley Latin, and told
wonderful tales of Greeks and Romans The
children gave the birds and beasts they tanned
the names Of these brave old heather. A
frlslSy young squirrel they named Dido. They
were at a loss at first what to call the pair of
colts that came ana ate apples from their
hands. But Mr.. Morrison told them stories
from the Odyssey, the niad and the Eneid
till they took sides and fought the siege of
Troy over again. They named the blooded
colts Ulysses and Penelope.
There was drab mouse that would scam
per up Percy's sleeve and hide, and eat cheese
and toast off plate at the table. The school
master said it looked ike their sister Brownie
when she peeped out from under her sun bon

ngho OF the youngest among the merry crew.
The chronieler of the fortunes of the Car
stones may vel be pardoned for lingering
over such Idle nonsense. They themselves
looked back TO those days in after years as to
a paradise. Heaven was in very truth about
them in their infancy. Trouble enough came
in later times to one and another But in
the saddest days there was stiu a remem-
brance of the old stone house. They were
reared in the gentlest, kindliest way. Theirs
was the ideal childhood. Despair, disease,
sin even, might crush them in deadly fold
later-naught could rob them of the power to
look back and say:

Mr.. J. D. Reddiug, a musical enthusiast
and a musician of rare talent, while serving
the state rs fish commissioner. conceived the
idea, it is said, Of getting up a frog opera He
made the rounds of the restaurants. and.
after much time and trouble, secured a tenor
frog, baSso frog (the bassos were numerous,
a baritone frog and soprano and alto frogs
He then locked himself up ia his room for
three days, refusing food Of any description,
with the exception Of chicken tanales and
craytish salad, diet which is said to have a
peculiarly stimulating effect upon the mu-
sical faculties. When at the expiration Of
that time the door was opened and the
composer released his best friends would not
have recognized him, SO enlaciated had he be-
come from the strained mental effort He
had done the opera, but the faithless member
of the Bohemian club. in whose care be had
left the opera company, regardless Of the
sanctity of his trust, had yielded 10 his base
appetite and eaten them. Whereupon Mr..
Redding, it is naliciously alleged, tore up
his opera in a rage, and refused 10 listen to
any apologies.
The tenor was tough, said the wretch,
but, Joe dear, the baritone and soprano
would melt in the mouth.
1t was "a pity that this catastrophe should
have taken place, for the frog is by no means
unmusical, and in sl1llful hands might have
astonished the community. 1T was light but
pleasing, said Mr. Redding, referring TO his
opera, "and might have rakcd in a pot of

One thing appears to have been very
